The response time for me is also a bit disappointing.
Is this the result of using an web-service for processing the speech?
All in all, nice demo, I'm satisfied. However, I _am_ curious of a demo with more distance to Homey, and also speech control AFTER the music is already playing and distoring the microphone reception of homey. :-)
The speech recognition part will get faster as well, because what we're doing right now is sending the speech to the cloud AFTER the user is done talking. In the end, this will happen WHILE the user is talking, so it's a lot faster then.
For the music part: as Homey controls your music, it will just lower the volume after hearing 'Hey Homey' (which even worked when Jeroen was standing on the black 'codecave' in our office you can see in the back!).
The Hue Widget on my Nexus5 is in some cases very slow.
Disco is also working great over here
Is "thank you Homey" also a command?
If that is the case then if Homey can alert you of a situation, e.g. frost outside, first with a sound or ring color and after "say it Homey" tell you what the alert really is.
Keep up the good work!
I think Homey should do what i say within max. 1-2 secs after i'm finish with saying of the command.
In the demo Homey needs between 5secs(433mhz) till almost 10secs (HUE) to proces speech and run the action.
One command needs 5 secs for speech and after that 5-10 secs to process .
In total it takes 10-15 seconds to speak and run 1 command.
How much time will it take to run 4 commands?
For me the responsetime is very important, because the longer it takes, the more annoying it will be and the more uncertain my Wife will be because it could be that homey didn't understand the command or something like that.
@MarcoF, well, we also have to create a product, so please forgive us for not doing everything at the same time. I still have to find some time to sleep as well ;-)
See topic Shipment and software status:
@MarcoF, no your post doesn't help things. Just wait a little bit and you can play around with your own homey. It's almost there.
